As CMS Engineering, the Air Slide we produce are ideal for economically and efficiently transporting fine-grained and dry bulk materials with minimum fluidization air and a slight slope. These systems offer a dust-free, low-wear and minimum-maintenance solution by reaching a transport capacity of 2000 m³ and above per hour. With these features, they are used in many different applications such as distribution from silos throughout the facility to vehicle and ship loading units, from bucket elevators to silo rooms. They are also suitable for projects that require multiple material flows to be transported to a common station.
Long-Lasting and Efficient Transport: Air Slide transport materials at low speed, without separation and with minimum wear. Thanks to their robust structure, they are almost maintenance-free and have a long life.
Flexible and Customizable Design: This system, which can be shaped according to user needs, offers branch points, distribution systems and solutions resistant to high temperatures (up to 400°C).
Low Cost and Energy Savings: Air Slide reduce costs in the long term by offering a quiet, clean and environmentally friendly transport solution. The system, which stands out with its low energy consumption, consumes only 0.02 kWh/t of energy per 100 meters, thus minimizing operating costs.
CMS Engineering carries out the project and manufacturing processes of air slide systems with its experienced expert team. The system projects and manufacturing we have done so far are now our reference.
Air slides are used to transport materials from one stage to another in production lines. For example, in a food processing plant, flour, sugar and other materials can be transported to the mixer, cooking unit and packaging unit via air slides. In this way, it ensures that materials are transported quickly and hygienically.
Air slides are used to transport products to packaging machines in packaging lines. For example, in a pharmaceutical plant, drug powder is transported to packaging machines via air slide , allowing drugs to be packaged quickly and hygienically. Air slide contribute to the continuity and hygiene of the packaging process.
Air slides are used to transport waste materials in waste disposal systems. For example, in a power plant, burnt ash is transported to the waste disposal facility via air slide . Air slide ensure that waste materials are disposed of without harming the environment.
Air Slide Line Equipment
1- Air Slide Drum (Feed Vessel): Air slide drum is used to ensure that materials change direction while moving in a smooth and controlled manner within the line. Working on the same principle as the air slide , this drum prevents any blockage or stoppage during the movement of materials. In this way, materials can continue their flow without any problems even when changing direction.
2- Outlet Round: Outlet chutes are used to ensure that materials carried along the air slide line are poured to a specific point in a smooth and linear flow. There are usually compensators at the bottom of the pouring chutes to adjust the distance within the system. This structure ensures that the material flow is controlled and efficient.
3- Air Slide Feet (Support for Air Slide): Air slide feet are used to support the air slide line while moving on a specific route. These feet fix the air slide cases and allow the system to operate reliably.
4- Expansion Joint (Flex Connection): Expansion joints are used at the discharge or entry points of the air slide line, as well as at many points of the facility. They are designed to balance the distance between the material inlets and outlets and to prevent air leaks. A special cloth located between the lower and upper flanges completely isolates the material from the external environment, increasing the efficiency of the system.
These components are the basic building blocks that ensure the smooth and efficient operation of the air slide line. As CMS Engineering, we produce each component in accordance with high quality standards.
Air Slide Line Fan and Installation Calculations
In pneumatic slide systems, it is critical to make accurate fan and installation calculations for efficient and continuous transportation of materials. The overall performance of the system depends on the fluidization air being provided at the correct pressure and flow rates. When making these calculations, parameters such as the physical properties of the material to be transported, the geometry of the system and the total transportation length should be taken into consideration.
1. Fan Calculations Fans used in air slide lines provide fluidization air and allow materials to move in a fluid state.
1.1. The following criteria are taken into account in fan selection: Flow rate (m³/hour): Calculated depending on the density of the material, the amount to be transported and the length of the line. A high flow rate requirement requires the selection of a powerful fan.
1.2. Pressure (mbar): The fan must operate at the correct pressure level in order for the fluidization air to provide the necessary energy throughout the entire length of the system. The line’s inclination angle, pipe diameter and friction losses are taken into account when making the calculation.
1.3. Material Properties: The specific gravity, grain size and moisture content of the material being transported play an important role in determining the fan capacity.
2. Installation Calculations The installation design of the air slide line should be made in a way that optimizes both the material flow and air movement.
2.1. Air Distribution: Providing an equal air distribution throughout the line is essential for the smooth transportation of materials. This is achieved by using pipes of appropriate diameters, air adjustment valves and flow regulators.
2.2. Pipe and Line Dimensions: Pipe diameters and line lengths are carefully calculated to minimize air friction losses. When necessary, friction-reducing coatings are applied to the inner surface of the pipe.
2.3. Slope Angle: The slope angle of the air slide line is a critical parameter for the material to flow in a fluidized state. Generally, a slope between 5° and 12° is sufficient.
As CMS Engineering, we perform the fan and installation calculations to be used in your air slide lines in accordance with the requirements of your project. Our expert team provides engineering solutions that will ensure your systems operate at maximum efficiency.
